It looks like my install of amd is screwed up. Is there a way to rebuild amd from source without rebuilding world? # uname -a FreeBSD utd65257.utdallas.edu 7.2-STABLE FreeBSD 7.2-STABLE #12: Wed May 6 12:12:16 CDT 2009 root@utd65257.utdallas.edu:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC i386 amd -r May 9 13:38:22 utd65257 amd[22655]/info: no logfile defined; using stderr May 9 13:38:22 utd65257 amd[22655]/info: AM-UTILS VERSION INFORMATION: May 9 13:38:22 utd65257 amd[22655]/info: Copyright (c) 1997-2006 Erez Zadok May 9 13:38:22 utd65257 amd[22655]/info: Copyright (c) 1990 Jan-Simon Pendry May 9 13:38:22 utd65257 amd[22655]/info: Copyright (c) 1990 Imperial College of Science, Technology & Medicine May 9 13:38:22 utd65257 amd[22655]/info: Copyright (c) 1990 The Regents of the University of California.

May 9 13:38:22 utd65257 amd[22655]/info: My ip addr is 127.0.0.1 This all looks OK, but look what happens when I try to load the amd.conf file: # amd -F /etc/amd.conf AMDCONF: syntax error on line 2 (section global) Here's the first two lines of the amd.conf file: # cat -n /etc/amd.conf 1 # GLOBAL OPTIONS SECTION 2 [global] 3 auto_dir =/.amd_net Line two is the syntax for the global section and is correct. I've tried putting spaces around the word global. I've tried using other types of brackets. Nothing works. And there's another thing. The /etc/defaults/rc.conf file has a flags line for amd: # grep amd_flags /etc/defaults/rc.conf bootparamd_flags="" # Flags to bootparamd amd_enable="NO" # Run amd service with $amd_flags (or NO). amd_flags="-a /.amd_mnt -l syslog /host /etc/amd.map /net /etc/amd.map" If I add an amd_flags section to /etc/rc.conf (which should override what's in /etc/defaults/rc.conf, amd will not start: # grep amd_flags /etc/rc.conf amd_flags="-l /var/log/amd.log" # /etc/rc.d/amd restart Stopping amd. Waiting for PIDS: 22821, 22821. NFS access cache time=60 Starting amd. # /etc/rc.d/amd status amd is not running. Apparently, when amd starts with the /etc/defaults/rc.conf settings, it does not parse the /etc/amd.conf file, which allows it to run. But that means I have to edit /etc/defaults/rc.conf if I want to make any changes *and* I can't have an amd.conf file. Clearly this is not correct behavior. So I'd like to rebuild amd and see if that fixes the problem, but I don't want to rebuild world if I can avoid it. One last thing. Is there any way to unmount nfs mounts without rebooting the box? I've tried amq -u and umount without success. The mounts are stale and have been that way for almost 24 hours now.
